# [XYZ ORGANIZATION] to Adopt CharmVerse to Power Grants

###### Authors: Bau, Alex Poon
### Abstract

We propose [XYZ ORGANIZATION] consider migrating their Grants program to CharmVerse. CharmVerse wishes to equip Grantors and Grantees with a robust set of tools to simplify, streamline, and increase transparency for participants in the grants process.

### Motivation
It is important [XYZ ORGANIZATION] continue to incentivize builders to build on top of and support [XYZ ORGANIZATION]. The Grants program is a great way to attract high-quality builders and grow the ecosystem. This proposal is geared to [XYZ ORGANIZATION], or stakeholders who want to see [XYZ ORGANIZATION] continue to thrive e.g. token holders, builders, and community members

#### Why CharmVerse for [XYZ ORGANIZATION]?
